Perhaps you should change the name/wrap it in Pod::VMS::Hlp and pod2vmshlp rather than Pod::Hlp to avoid confusion. > Note that CPAN indexers won't even index it under the VMS::* namespace > because of the distribution name. Should it? There's no VMS:: packages in it and with the exception of pod2hlb, nothing really VMS specific about it. The format just happens to be one used on VMS. Would be like having WWW::Pod::HTML instead of Pod::HTML. > The distribution includes a pod to VMS HLP converter and a pod to VMS > RUNOFF converter (as well as a wrapper around LIBRARY to turn *.HLP files > into a PERL.HLB help library). <Ignorance>Okay, whatever those are. ;)</Ignorance> > Caveat's: it does not use Pod::Parse, and it has not been tested against > perl 5.8.0 and the Makefile.PL might have "" hash ref bugs in it. Well, if someone wants to fix it up and write a vmshelpifypods target I'll hlp integrate it into MakeMaker. -- Michael G.
